The formula
kW = MW × 1000
Worked through with a real value: 10 megawatts = 10000 kilowatts.
Going the other way: MW = kW × 0.001, so 1 kilowatt = 0.001 megawatts.
What each unit is
- megawatt MW
- A million watts. Power stations and large industrial installations produce megawatts.
- kilowatt kW
- A thousand watts, the unit household electricity consumption is billed in.
Where these come from
- 1 megawatt = 1000000 watts
- 1 kilowatt = 1000 watts
Every other number on this page is computed from those, and each category is pinned to conversions worked out by hand from the units' primary definitions before it ships.
